Luxury Down Duvets – I swear, the duvet cuddled me (even for allergy sufferers).

When it comes to cuddling up for a comfy night’s sleep, the right duvet makes all the difference, doesn’t it? And even if we’re not talking comfort (and really, why wouldn’t you?), did you know that for every degree you turn down the thermostat you’ll save 1-2% on your heating bill during an eight-hour sleep cycle. That’s 10% over the course of a year! And obviously retaining natural body heat is...

Halloween, LittleStuff style…

Halloween, LittleStuff style…

We don’t do Trick or Treating – we never have. It’s a new thing that neither myself or Mr LittleStuff grew up doing, and it juts never sat right with me that I would take my children out to knock on a strangers door and expect sweets. I’m not morally opposed, I’m not hugely anti… it’s just not the way we ‘do’ Halloween. Instead, we tend to do what i did as a kid, and enjoy a...

New Competition – Win an older kids Street Scooter from Slick Willies

Slick Willies. I admit it – when the email landed in my inbox I thought it was probably from the seriously dodgy end of my email spectrum, and nearly didn’t bother reading it at all. Mr LittleStuff might have tutted and sighed at me when I told him this. Apparently I’m a fool. Because Slick Willies is one of the UK’s leading Skate shops – and the oldest in London (they’re a 70’s child like me,...

The Way Back Home – Oliver Jeffers

  Once there as a boy, and one day, he found an aeroplane in his cupboard… He didn’t remember leaving it in there, but he thought he’d take it out for a go right away. At first, all went well and the plane flew higher and higher and higher until… suddenly, with a splutter, it ran out of petrol. The boy was stuck on the moon… and he was not alone… “The Way Back Home” is a fantastic little story – just as you’d expect...

Asus Zenpad 8.0 Z380 – if your kid watches Netflix & YouTube, they’ll love this tablet.

I never ever imagined that we would become a six-tablet household so fast (it doesn’t seem all that long ago that I remember chuntering away to Mr LittleStuff about what an utter waste of time they were. I mean – they couldn’t do anything that my Mac couldn’t, which was under my fingertips for 12hrs a day… *hollow laugh*) But each of us uses our tablets in different ways, and a tablet is only as good as...

Old School Red Leather Satchel? Oh my yes, Yoshi! | Review

I don’t know what it is, but I know I’m not alone in my love of the traditional leather satchel. I mean – how could you not, really? Practical, stylish, versatile… It’s everything you need. And so darn cute, too! And as we head into Autumn and the cooler months, I always seem to put away the cute little fabric bags and backpacks I’ve been using all summer, and reach for something sturdier and...
